Yu Wan'er was afraid of Yu Jingchen, just like in her previous life. She would tremble with fear whenever she saw Yu Jingchen and dare not get close to him at all.
"Come here," Yu Jingchen said, naturally addressing Yu Wan'er.
Yu Wan'er dared not step forward, but she also dared not resist, so she could only take small steps forward. Yu Jingchen did not speak, but just watched her walk up to him. Nan Zhiyun did not dare to speak when she saw Yu Jingchen's appearance. She could not understand what Yu Jingchen meant to this second princess.
"Father, Father Emperor," Yu Wan'er stammered.
"Do you still want to stay by your mother's side? The choice is yours. If you say yes, then I will no longer care how she treats you. If you don't want to, then she will have nothing to do with you from now on." Yu Jingchen handed the choice to Yu Wan'er.
“Your son, Your subject…” Yu Wan’er looked at Zhao Zhaorong with fear in her heart.
"I don't have that much patience. I'll ask you one last time: stay or leave," Yu Jingchen asked.
"Your Majesty, you can't do this! Wan'er is my child!" Consort Zhao cried out.
"You know he's your child? How come I didn't notice?" Yu Jingchen replied casually.
"Your subject, your subject does not want to go back, does not want to." Yu Wan'er knelt before Yu Jingchen.
"Yu Wan'er!" Zhao Zhaorong called out to Yu Wan'er, startling her so much that Yu Wan'er trembled violently and tears streamed down her face.
"Will you live alone or what?" Yu Jingchen asked again, ignoring Zhao Zhaorong's reluctance.
"Your subject..." Yu Wan'er didn't know. Logically speaking, it was too early for someone like Yu Wan'er to live alone.
“Father…” Yu Wan’er couldn’t speak. She didn’t know what to choose. What she wanted most before was to get her mother’s care. After she found out that her mother didn’t like her, she stopped hoping for it. But she still had expectations in her heart.
Yu Jingchen noticed Yu Wan'er's hesitation and made a decision in his mind: "Imperial Consort?" Yu Jingchen asked her.
"Isn't Your Highness very busy?" Nan Zhiyun asked with some doubt.
"What do you think, Yun'er?" Yu Jingchen asked her. "Besides the Imperial Concubine, do you have any other suitable candidates? Or does Yun'er have this idea?" Yu Jingchen asked her.
Nan Zhiyun was stunned: "No way... I don't know how to take care of a child." Nan Zhiyun felt somewhat resistant. The thought that this was Yu Jingchen's child with another woman made her feel awkward and extremely uncomfortable.
"Yun'er will have her own baby in the future, your little baby and mine." Yu Jingchen had never thought that he would actually develop such feelings for a girl, so he never paid attention to it.
These children were conceived when he was still in the Eastern Palace, and he allowed them to stay. The mothers of these children were from families with relatively weak influence.
Nan Zhiyun looked at Yu Wan'er kneeling on the ground with complicated emotions. She looked really pitiful, but she just couldn't bring herself to like her.
"Your Majesty, I am unwilling." Nan Zhiyun did not want to raise someone else's child.
“Since you’re unwilling, then so be it. Yun’er, don’t force yourself. The Second Princess will be raised by the Imperial Concubine.” Yu Jingchen said, but before he could finish, Yu Wan’er grabbed Nan Zhiyun’s robe: “Your Highness, Imperial Concubine… Wan’er will be good… Wan’er will listen to you. Wan’er won’t bother Your Highness, and I can take care of myself…”
